Chapter 344: Hiding
Such a large valley can almost accommodate a city. The restrictions in this area are naturally composed of countless formations. Xiao Chen carefully came to the edge of the valley. With his keen sense, he found the gap between the two formations and passed through quietly.
However, just passing through the formation slightly immediately attracted the attention of the two old men in the Refining Void and Combining Dao Realm. Xiao Chen immediately held his breath and hid behind two large rocks, not daring to move.
Fortunately, the spiritual power in this valley fluctuated too much. Once inside, if he did not have an extraordinary sense like him, it would be difficult to detect anything with his sense. The two old men in the Refining Void and Combining Dao looked over here and saw that there was no movement, so they ignored it.
Until the attention of the two old men was slowly diverted, Xiao Chen continued to sneak into the valley carefully. There were too many soldiers patrolling along the way, and he must not be discovered, otherwise, in his current state, the situation might be worse.
There are many caves in this valley, some of which are naturally formed, and some are dug by humans, but their function is to provide living for people here. This place is isolated from the outside world. It is obvious that Yunguo has sent people here to fill the spiritual power cracks for more than one or two days. The last time, the 10,000 people should be the latest batch. It is unknown where the previous people went.
But now Xiao Chen has no intention to care about these things. The most urgent task is to find a hidden cave and try to break through the realm before the ten fire elders of the Demon Flame Sect catch up.
Finally, after an incense stick, he found a dark cave with simple furnishings. The bed was made of a few wooden boards. The bedding on it was damp and moldy, and it smelled stinky. It seems that no one has lived here for a long time.
Although this cave is generally not visited by people, if it were not for the urgent situation today, he would never choose such a dangerous place to break through the realm.
Breaking through artistic conception requires more caution than breaking through realm. Once disturbed, it may lead to serious consequences that can never be made up. If it is at the critical period of his breakthrough, let alone the masters of the Hedao realm, even the Qi-refining disciples with only twenty years of practice can cause him to suffer severe damage to his soul, which may never be able to be repaired and recovered.
Therefore, when those cultivators are making breakthroughs in their cultivation, they often set up many restrictions in advance and then retreat. They will never take risks like him.
"The Demon Flame Sect... If Xiao succeeds in Hedao today, it will be the day for you to return to the sect."
After sitting down, Xiao Chen no longer hesitated, and immediately calmed down, not being disturbed by the outside world. Then he let the true essence flow through his body, and instantly entered a state of emptiness, allowing him to better comprehend the artistic conception of immortality.
Time passed slowly, and at this time, there were only seven of the Ten Fire Elders of the Demon Flame Sect left outside, and they had already chased to the outside of this forbidden valley.
"Hush... It's the people of Yunguo's national religion."
Xuan Yunzi immediately ordered the people behind him to hold back their breath. He never expected that Yunguo would secretly let so many people gather here to do something unknown.
The relationship between the Life and Death Alliance and the national religions of various countries has always been delicate. They are neither mortal enemies nor allies. Although the sects of the Life and Death Alliance exist within the borders of various countries, the national religion will never let people go to those places to encircle and suppress them, because mutual hostility is not good for anyone, and will only allow the enemy country to take advantage of the opportunity.
"That kid... must have entered here."
Xue Yanzi and Guishenjing slowly moved up. Just now, they sensed that the life and death talisman on Xiao Chen's body was broken here, indicating that the other party had entered this forbidden valley.
"What should we do now?"
Several people frowned deeply. Originally, it was inevitable to capture that kid today, but who knew what Yunguo's national religion was doing here? Let that kid hide in it.
Although the Life and Death Alliance and the national religions of various countries usually do not interfere with each other, this must be a secret place of Yun Country. If they force their way in, it will inevitably cause a conflict between the two sides. The Demon Flame Religion alone is far from being a match for the national religion of Yun Country.
"What should we do?"
Xuan Yunzi is the leader of the Ten Fire Elders. At this time, Xue Yanzi and Gui Shenjing, who are hiding in the black fog, are looking at him, hoping that he can come up with an idea as soon as possible. Now that three elders have died, if they return empty-handed, they will probably be severely punished.
"Let me think..."
Suddenly, Xuan Yunzi's eyes became extremely cold, making him, who originally looked like an immortal, look cold and oppressive at this time.
Suddenly, he pinched a seal in his hand, and the consciousness of Xue Yanzi and Gui Shenjing immediately entered his sea of consciousness. At this time, when the three of them spoke, only the three of them could hear it.
Xue Yanzi and Guishen were surprised to see him suddenly pull their consciousness into his sea of consciousness. They were a little puzzled and asked, "Xuan Yunzi, what are you doing?"
In the sea of consciousness, the consciousness of three people floated in the void and transformed into three people. Xuan Yunzi's eyes were slightly cold, and murderous intent was looming in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, "How does Luan Shili treat us on weekdays?"
Xue Yanzi and Guishen were surprised to hear him call the name of the leader directly, and they were even more shocked. They had vaguely realized something. They only heard Guishen said in a cold voice, "This time we will risk our lives to bring that kid back. Those magic weapons and skills will not be our turn."
"That's right..."
Xuan Yunzi's eyes became colder, and he said gloomily, "Luan Shili relies on his cultivation to be higher than us. He has always been stubborn and self-righteous. He has long been not as lenient to us as the previous leader. This time, even if we try our best to bring that kid back to him, what benefits can we get? It's nothing more than a sentence 'You have made great contributions today, I am very happy, come on, set up a banquet'!"
The further he talked, the angrier Xue Yanzi and Guishen Jing became. The three of them had made great contributions to the Demon Flame Sect. Without them, how could the Demon Flame Sect be as prosperous as it is today in just a hundred years? How could he become a member of the Life and Death Alliance in one fell swoop?
Xue Yanzi said, "Xuan Yunzi, it's okay if you just say it. What should we do now?"
Xuan Yunzi condensed his gaze and said, "You should have seen the skills and magic weapons on that kid. If it weren't for the life and death talisman, we wouldn't be able to catch up with him. If such skills and magic weapons were used for the three of us, What will happen to people’s income?”
Xue Yanzi and Guishen were startled after hearing this. It turned out that he actually wanted to steal these treasures.
Xuan Yunzi continued, "So today, no matter what, we have to capture that person, and then we will work together to break the restrictions of the Yun Kingdom. If they come to stop them, even if they kill them all and shatter the entire valley, We must capture that person no matter what..."
The more they listened to what he said, the more Xue Yanzi and Guishen Jing felt chills in their hearts. If they did this, wouldn't it make the Demon Flame Sect and the Yun Kingdom's National Sect become on the same level? At that time, it would be impossible for them to return to the Demon Flame Sect. At this moment, the two of them finally understood what Xuan Yunzi meant, that he wanted to steal the treasure and betray the Life and Death Alliance.
